VCSELs offer a third option compared with conventional light emitting diodes (LEDS) and edge-emitting laser diodes (EELs).

Imagine tiny building toy pieces that automatically snap together to form a strong, flat sheet. Then, scientists add special chemical 'hooks' to these sheets to attach glowing molecules called ...

Special biomedical materials that can be injected as a liquid and turn into a solid inside our bodies—called thermogels—could ...

A breakthrough in imaging technology promises to transform our understanding of the inner workings of living cells, and provide insights into a wide range of diseases.

The resolution improvement between fluctuation-based (about 70 nm) and localization imaging (about 7 nm) in our workflow is akin to switching between confocal and STED ... fixed on the customized ...

Abstract: Confocal microscopy plays a crucial role in topography measurement. However, conventional confocal microscopes usually have high-speed moving parts, which cause vibration, affect the ...

To study this, we use state-of-the-art super-resolution microscopy and single molecule tracking to record the movement of individual molecules inside live cells. Single molecule dynamics reports on ...
